<p>Don’t take my words too seriously, as I am new to these forums and am only an underclassman, but I’m going to guess based on prior experiences of friends and family that the answer to both is “no”. I think 1 is “no” because a recent graduate who loves music, science, and math from our county is studying physics and math at an Ivy (he could easily handle all three). I’m pretty sure that 2 is “no” because its hard enough to get in already! (GPA, SAT, Etc.) But anyway, even though I’m probably wrong, this will bump your thread. :)</p>
